After the enfeoffment of Brother Huang, Lin Tailai asked again: "In addition, don't forget to inspire more merchants to participate in the maritime trade."
Even if the Lin Group is huge, its strength is still limited and it cannot break out of the category of fighting alone.
Only by encouraging the whole society to participate deeply can a new interest class facing the ocean be formed.
The Lin Group can act as a guide, protector, arbitrator, and even the cornerstone group of the interest class, but cannot become the interest class itself.
Lin Tailai doesn’t care about earning 100,000 or 200,000 yuan in extra silver from the sea trade every year, but he cares about how many people are involved.
Brother Huang obviously doesn’t understand why he wants to encourage more Jiangnan businessmen to participate in the maritime trade? Is it not good for Lin’s group to eat alone?
But Huang still worked diligently according to the instructions and replied: "The main difficulty is that people who do business in Jiangnan have great concerns about the risks of maritime shipping, so they are not as good as those in Fujian."
The reason is also very simple. Fujian is known as eight mountains, one river and one branch of land. It has little arable land and has no way out except to study. Poor people naturally have the motivation to go to sea to seek life.
But Suzhou and even Jiangnan are the best fertile land in the world, with many ways to make a living, so there are naturally no need for ordinary people to venture on the sea.
Lin Tailai asked: "Aren't they jealous of the profits of sea trade? For example, the same silk can be exchanged for ten times the silver as long as it is shipped to Japan!
And there are Luzon and other places not far south. The Franchise people entrenched in Luzon have a lot of silver in their hands!"
Brother Huang replied: "It is naturally very jealous of the profits, but the cost and risks are indeed high. Once the boat only goes but never returns, it is possible to lose everything."
Lin Tailai sighed: "It seems that it's time to introduce an insurance system!
If you are afraid of an accident in the ship, you can pay some insurance premiums to Xinwu Bank before setting off.
If there is a real accident in the ship and cargo, Xinwu Bank will compensate according to the original price.”
The left and right could not help but admire the attendance again. Their ideas were always new and they opened up a new track casually.
If the maritime trade is prosperous, this insurance will definitely be a huge new business.
And this will probably be an exclusive business for a Lin Group, which is difficult for others to get involved in, at least in the short term.
Because only the Lin Group has enough credit and strength, no one can compare with it.
If any overseas merchant who wants to "buy insurance", he would definitely be more willing to find Lin's Group than other companies who have doubts about their ability to pay.
The credit of Lin's Group is not only Lin Tailai's personal reputation, but also based on direct control of Suzhou Jinong Shop, one-tenth of Yangzhou Salt Industry's business of people's livelihood needs.
Brother Huang also had the urge to ask if he could let himself manage the insurance industry, but he forced himself to restrain this greed.
Of course, Lin Tailai did not have the idea of putting a burden on Brother Huang, and waved his hand to let Brother Huang retreat.
Even after thinking for a while, Lin Tailai didn't want Xinwu Bank to be responsible. Otherwise, the financial rights would be too concentrated, which is very bad.
Let Yangzhou Linshi Salt Industry and Suzhou Jinongcang sell shares and set up another insurance company.
So who should I get this new business to? Lin Tailai thought about it and found that all the closest people already have a lot of business.
The eldest brother is in charge of earthwork projects, responsible for the maintenance of the waterways in Susong, and is also preparing to build a seawall in Songjiang Prefecture.
The second brother is in Yangzhou, in front of the Lin Salt Industry legal person, and the third brother is in charge of the increasingly large industrial park.
The wife Wang Shiwu is in charge of Jinong Warehouse and Xinwu Bank; Fan is in charge of the traditional collection business of the various halls of Xinwu Lian and the service industry of various ports and terminals, and is promoting Susong Chang integration; Huang is in charge of water transportation,
Smuggling, Taihu Lake, and future maritime trade business.
Secretary Bai is not that ambitious and does not want to show up. He is currently mainly working to assist Wang Shiwu in managing housework and handling confidential letters.
It was already noon, and Lin Junhou went to serve his parents for dinner first.
During the meal, Lin Tailai suddenly complained to his parents: "Why didn't you give birth to a few more brothers?"
Lin Taigong: "?"
What? Isn’t this enough to give birth to four of you brothers and have all raised them?
Lin Tailai said that it was not enough at all, and he could not even send out the candidate to marry a "princess" in Japan.
If it really doesn't work, let Lin Yi, the eldest grandson of the Lin family, go to Japan for marriage.
Grandmaster Lin, who loved his eldest grandson, was angry and told Lin Sixi to get out quickly.
If you carefully study the executive configuration of Lin's Group, you will find that the core economic lifeline business uses relatives.
Although auxiliary businesses such as armedness, education, and culture are also very important, they mostly use non-kind old friends.
So Lin Tailai tried to persuade Secretary Bai who was not in charge of any business, hoping that Secretary Bai, who was very educated, would come out and take charge of future insurance business.
But after Secretary Bai declined a few times, he only expressed his consideration.
Then an hour later, another outer room, Sun Lianlian, came from the proofreader office and clamored to add a burden.
It is obvious that Secretary Bai deliberately informed Sun Lianlian.
In the Lin Mansion harem system, Secretary Bai and Sun Lianlian are a small faction because of their same origin.
As the only concubine who has not given birth to children, Sun Lianlian's sense of security is extremely lacking. Since she has no children, she wants to pay more attention to business.
Although Sun Lianlian has a higher level of education than ordinary people, Lin Tailai is still not relieved if he has no experience in economic business.
In the afternoon, Lin Tailai continued to meet with the princes from all walks of life. Now the person who reported on his work was Lin Fulai, the third brother of the Lin family.
"The industrial park located on the south bank of Xujiang River has achieved snowball development in the past two years and finally achieved the goal of 10,000 looms last month.
Currently, there are 40,000 to 50,000 weavers in the industrial park, together with family members, upstream and downstream industries and service industry practitioners, and the population size in the industrial park has reached 100,000.
An emerging giant town is rising slowly on the south bank of Xujiang River, gradually replacing Suzhou East City and becoming the center of Jiangnan Silk Weaving Industry.”
Brother Lin’s work report was very excited and used a lot of sentences that Lin Tailai loved.
But Lin Tailai's attention was not on Brother Lin. He kept looking at Song Quan and Ma Yingming who were following Brother Lin to meet with him.
Song Quan and Uncle Song are old elders in the same village and were the first to be the principal in Anletang. Ma Yingming turned out to be the Shen family's Guanzhuang and the earliest economic talent recruited by the Lin family.
Later, both of them were in Mudu Tax Customs, one was the chief clerk and the other was the chief clerk, and then they helped Brother Lin San from the industrial park next to them.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to expand the industrial park by just Brother Lin’s ability.
Lin Tailai suddenly pulled Brother Lin aside and said to Song Quan: "The group wants to establish a new insurance company, and you can become the executive vice president."
Then he said to Ma Yingming: "From today, you will be the executive vice president of the industrial park."
This round of bans is no, the personnel adjustments have been completed!
